Regular intermodal services were launched in Vladivostok on July 20, 2012 and since that time, more than 210,000 people have travelled on Aeroexpress trains. “Introducing a new timetable will make Aeroexpress services available to numerous passengers of the Vladivostok International Airport’s daily flights”, stated Nadezhda Dorzhieva, Press Secretary for the Aeroexpress company.
The route is served by passenger rolling stock comprised of Demikhovsky Engineering
